Additional Notes

  • Across all listed Lincoln MKX AWD configurations spanning 2006-2018, the transfer case fluid capacity is 0.35 liter, a notably small volume that reflects the compact, single-speed nature of the transfer unit rather than a traditional multi-speed transfer case requiring larger fluid reserves.
  • The 3.5 V6 24V AWD covering 2006-2010 is the only configuration in the specifications that carries a defined fluid change interval, with normal use conditions calling for a change at 150,000 miles.
  • Under severe use conditions, the same 3.5 V6 24V AWD (2006-2010) drops to a 60,000-mile change interval, less than half the normal-use figure, reflecting the accelerated fluid degradation associated with demanding operating conditions such as frequent towing, off-road use, or extreme temperatures.
  • The 3.7 V6 Ti-VCT AWD appears across four separate year groupings in the specifications: 2011, 2012, 2013-2015, and 2016-2018, each carrying the same 0.35-liter transfer case capacity under normal use conditions.
  • The 2.7 EcoBoost AWD, covering 2016-2018, shares the 0.35-liter transfer case capacity with all other listed configurations despite being a turbocharged engine variant, indicating the transfer unit itself is consistent across powertrain types in the MKX lineup as represented in the specifications.
